عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ هَذَا الْحَيَّ مِنْ مُضَرَ لَا تَدَعُ لِلَّهِ عَبْدًا صَالِحًا إِلَّا فَتَنَتْهُ وَأَهْلَكَتْهُ ، حَتَّى يُدْرِكَهَا اللَّهُ بِجُنُودٍ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ فَيُذِلُّهَا حَتَّى لَا يمْنَعَ ذَنَبَ تَلْعَةٍ " .
Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The tribe of Mudar will not leave any righteous servant of Allah Almighty except that it will subject him to trial and destruction, until Allah Almighty sends against them armies from His presence and humiliates them, to the extent that they will not (be able to) defend even the low end of a valley."
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ لَا تَدَعُ مُضَرُ عَبْدًا لِلَّهِ مُؤْمِنًا إِلَّا فَتَنُوهُ أَوْ قَتَلُوهُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بِأَسَانِيدَ وَالْبَزَّارُ مِنْ طُرُقٍ ، وَفِي بَعْضِهَا قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ : ادنوا يَا مَعَاشِرَ مُضَرَ ، فَوَاللَّهِ لَا تَزَالُونَ بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ تَفْتِنُوهُ وَتَقْتُلُوهُ أَوْ لَيَضْرِبَنَّكُمُ اللَّهُ وَمَلَائِكَتُهُ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى لَا تَمْنَعُوا بَطْنَ تَلْعَةٍ . قَالُوا : فَلِمَ قَدِمْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : إِنَّ مِنْكُمْ سَيِّدَ وَلَدِ آدَمَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَإِنَّ مِنْكُمْ سَوَابِقَ كَسَوَابِقِ الْخَيْلِ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ بِاخْتِصَارٍ ، وَأَحَدُ أَسَانِيدِ أَحْمَدَ وَأَحَدُ أَسَانِيدِ الْبَزَّارِ رِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .

In one narration the wording is: "The people of the tribe of Mudar will not leave any believing servant of Allah Almighty except that they will either subject him to trial or kill him."
Ahmad recorded it with various chains and al-Bazzar through various routes, and in some of them the wording is: "Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O people of the tribe of Mudar! Come near. By Allah! You will continue to subject every believer to trial and to kill him, until Allah Almighty, His angels and the believers strike you, to the extent that you will not be able to defend even the low end of a valley. The people said: When this is our state, then why have you put us forward? He replied: The reason is that from among you came the leader of the children of Adam (peace be upon him), and from among you came those who outstrip others, just like the horses that come out ahead in a race."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat in abridged form; the narrators of one of the chains of Ahmad and one of the chains of al-Bazzar are the narrators of the Sahih.

وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَتَضْرِبَنَّ مُضَرُ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ حَتَّى لَا يُعْبَدَ لِلَّهِ اسْمٌ أَوْ لَيَضْرِبَنَّهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى لَا يَمْنَعُوا ذَنَبَ تَلْعَةٍ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ مُجَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَثَّقَهُ النَّسَائِيُّ وَضَعَّفَهُ جَمَاعَةٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The people of the tribe of Mudar will strike the servants of Allah until the worship of Allah Almighty remains only in name, until the believers strike them and they will not be able to defend even the low end of a valley."
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains the narrator Mujalid bin Sa'id, whom al-Nasa'i (may Allah have mercy on him) declared trustworthy and a group declared da'if (weak); the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
